Description

Sklar's Kerrision detachable rongeur with thin footplates and an ejector is used in spinal laminectomy procedures of the vertebral arch. The profile size allows for use in delicate areas near the spinal cord. This black Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coating surface protects the instrument for durability and smoothness, reducing the need for frequent sharpening. This version has a 90 degree down angled tip, and is available in different lengths and bite sizes. When the back hammer is pulled, the crossbar detaches from the shank, easing sterilization and the opening of the Kerrison.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, the detachable shaft design is specifically engineered to streamline maintenance. Using an innovative crossbar mechanism, the shaft can be easily disengaged from the shank, allowing for a much more thorough and efficient sterilization process.

Is the titanium nitride coating beneficial for durability?

Absolutely. The Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating provides a protective black finish that significantly increases the surface hardness of the instrument. This results in:

Enhanced longevity for the cutting edge.
Smoother operation during procedures.

Yes, it is precision-engineered for such tasks. With a thin footplate and a 6mm downward-cutting tip (90°), the instrument is optimized for safely accessing and performing precise bone excision in the tight spaces near the spinal cord.
